[FIXED] Sort Glyphs hangs

Post by Mike Thompson »

Load a TT font, 277 glyphs into FC 6.0 under VISTA.
Open the Sort Gyphs window and select Windows Unicode etc press OK
After 10 minutes the progress bar has only moved 1/8th inch, my cpu meter is nearly steady at 55%.
I press Cancel and after 5 minutes nothing new has happened.
Ctrl/Alt/Delete and Exit from FC, the error display says application is waiting for user input.

Can you suggest a way around this so I can use Sort Glyph?

Please uninstall your current version of FontCreator. Then download and install version 6.0.5:

Erwin,
Did the download. Seems to work now. The sort is instantaneous. Thanks,
